Paul We delve into the Opta data now with our usual post-Gameweek members’ article, focusing on a case of standout performers across the previous round of fixtures.
Arsenal’s attack comes under scrutiny ahead of favourable festive fixtures, while Chelsea’s midfield man of the moment puts in another outstanding shift.
We also check out Man City’s super-sub, the Potters’ playmaker and the impact of Claude Puel on Jamie Vardy’s goal potential.
Please suggest who is the best FPL MF to consider from ManCity MF:
KdB, D.Silva, Sterling, Sane?
Thanks
Sterling at the moment.
Raheem.
Sterling
Sterling is so popular coz his price but in reality, if money is not an issue, KDB is best to own. Always in team and almost every game on some points. But becaus of his price, I prefer Sterling
Thanks Guys
Which one would you rather have for the next week?
A: Vardy (new)
B: Ramsey (sot)
C: Coutinho (EVE)
C
B.

B
B
C
b.
Thats rather close, cheers.
Bench 1
Daniels
Tark
RLC
Daniels.
Probably Daniels
To go against the grain, I think I'd bench Tarkowski (or RLC).
Watford can definitely score. The danger is that if they don't you'd imagine plenty of the Burnley defenders to rack up BAPS!
Play a or b... ?
a) Richarlison - away to burnley
b) RLC - home to bournemouth
Tnks.
Richy Rich.
A
Richarlison
What would you be thinking if you owned this lot? Bench selections and order correct?
Courtois
Otamendi Daniels Moreno
Salah Hazard Sterling Richarlison Gross
Kane Morata
Speroni Mee Chilwell Niasse
0.2 ITB 0FT
Cheers
Why do you have 0 frees? Hope CL doesn’t burn you
Otherwise g2g
I wanted Hazard before he rose and Sane dropped. Bad move?
No Haz is a must I just hope none of the rest of your squad gets injured midweek
I hope so too. Good luck
Mee over Moreno
Why? Liverpool have one of best home defensive records in the league
CL fatigue and the game being a derby are a concern
This is what made me choose him but I don't think there's much in it. I'm sort of expecting goals
Your starting 11 is correct, IMO. I feel like Burnley could concede; Chilwell's points (if he plays) could leave a sour aftertaste, if they keep a cleanie. If we knew Niasse would start, I'd bump him up... but fair enough, we do not.
For security of the full 90 minutes though, sure - your bench order is fine.
My thoughts exactly. Just not sure if Chilwell worth the risk. Probably not. Swap Niasse and Chilwell?
Fabianski and Daniels OUT
Courtois and Mee IN
FREE....Good moves?
Squad is;
Fab, Elliot
Kola, Ota, Maguire, Daniels*, Naughton
Ramsey, Salah, RLC, Haz, King
Kane, Niasse, Morata
Yes good moves.
Skate are you doing with Niasse going forward?
*What
Going 352 this week, thoughts?
DDG
Otamendi Ward Christensen
Salah Sterling Hazard(C) Richarlison RLC
Kane Morata(V)
Elliot Daniels Niasse Hunemeier
Next week will be :
Daniels > Kiko
Hunemeier > Kenny
Looks legit
Captain
Kane
Morata
Hazard
Salah
Morata shouldnt even be there as an option. Kane, Haz, Salah in that order
Why shouldn't he be? He is every bit as valid as the rest imo. From those 4 I'm going Hazard though
Haz better baseline bonus, on pens, more explosive and playing a similar position, why should he not be picked ahead of Morata?
Why not?
See above
Really Kane ahead of Haz and Salah ? His reputation is incredible
Not just his reputation. He is playing stoke!
Kane for me and I own all of them.
Morata
How does this look for the upcoming gameweeks
Foster Elliot (Foster - > Gomes next week)
Christensen Otamendi Daniels Mee Moreno
Salah Sterling Hazard Groß RLC
Kane Morata Wilson
I don't love Gomes as a GK pick when Kiko is available in defence for 0.1 more.
I understand why you may select him over Pope, though. Longevity? Price? Gomes is still a decent pick, but I may even select Lossl (or someone more expensive) ahead of him.
Otherwise, looks decent. You could downgrade Wilson (and a defender... Daniels?) in the next couple of weeks to upgrade a midfielder etc.
Jesus, Sane dropped 0.2m over night?! What!
Surely not?
Sane only had 1 drop this week. 8.9 down to 8.8
0.1m max
Dropped 0.1m last week
My captain choices have been gash over the last 8 GWs!:
GW15: 4 - Kane
GW14: 2 - Morata
GW13: 16 - Kane
GW12: 2 - Kane
GW11: 4 - Kane
GW10: 4 - Sanchez
GW09: 10 - Lukaku
GW08: 4 - Kane
Looking at that record & recent stats tables, I am a little hesitant to put the (C) on Kane this week. UCL withstanding, who would you (C) from my below team?
DDG
Azpi / Duffy / Daniels
Hazard / Salah / Ramsey / Richarlison / Gross
Kane / Morata
Subs: Elliot // DCL / Mee / Hunimeier
Thinking Hazard (C); Salah (VC). Also, reckon my GK & bench order is alright?
There’s a common theme in your choices... Stop captaining Kane
Well, exactly.
I disagree. Kane is still showing form regardless of FPL points accumulated.
This guy above wouldn't be too disheartened had he stuck with him on GW14 for example.
Kane captainers have been unlucky on the whole and it shouldn't deter what he can potentially score going forward. He's a striker that takes more shots than anybody in the league, can explode at any moment and is on pens.
I for one will be captaining him over Salah/Hazard/Morata this week.
It's better to have players who actually explode than one that always can explode but rarely does.
And he's the most expensive in the whole game.
Silly comment. Not sure how you gauge who "actually explodes" to those that "always can but rarely do?"
You make a judgement on an upcoming game based on a players attributes, fixture and form combined together.
If you watch enough football you'll realise that Kane hasn't become a bad player because his FPL points says so.
And I maintain, telling people "stop captaining Kane" is just riduculous. He may not have been the best pick last week in hindsight but it's clear that he should be one of the most fancied picks this week.
(This coming from someone who has Hazard/Morata/Salah in my squad also).
Salah
Haz captain v West Sham surely
Swap out Daniels for Zeegelaar in a draft league or hold for now?
Wait until next week
For draft, I'd be tempted to make the move now. Depends how active the league is, but someone may jump on him next week.
Only downside is whether Zeegelaar is nailed, I guess.
Great news on Jones. Glad I kept him.
Realistically, how many games do expect him to play out if the 7 games in the next 22 days starting with city??
Five
No chance. That's a game every 4 days. Hell be lucky to play 4, and that's being generous. At the start of the season he would have struggled to play this many games. Now that the injury has hit hard, he won't be able to play 1 game a week. Be lucky if he doesn't injure himself again given the intensity of the Derby clash this weekend. Best of luck to you as an owner.
I kept him just because I had other transfers to do 😀
A) Sane and Azpi > Haz and Christensen (-4)
B) Do it next week for free
B.
If you can absorb the potential price changes, B.
Wait until Champs league game at least but I like it. Do over 2 weeks if possible or save and next week
These look ok for 2 FTs?
Groß + Sané ➡ Coutinho + Ramsey
Great!
Cheers!
If Kane blanks again then next week I will trade him out for Morata or Lacazette to bring in Silva for RLC.
Oh hell yes.
Bit if a problem that DGW...
We can't pick a Spurs full back....Toby will just be back (maybe) so that means he and one other will likely only play one each....We have no idea who plays up from for WHM but likely to be rotated...Lamela will add to the Spurs merry go round...On and on and on...
Might just be Lloris and Kane in the end..I can't see anything else reliable enough.
I'd almost guarantee Toby won't be back. Spurs' medical staff don't seem to have a clue with giving return dates on their players.
Adrian for me if he's nailed. Lanzini and Kane. No hits, no chips, simps..
Just Lanzini and Kane for me. Alli loved a festive period flutter so if he shows some form, I may be tempted to punt on him instead of Lanzini.
Need one of Son or Lamela out of the way to guarantee back to back starts for Ali...maybe...
Even Kane may cause Poch to think hard about overdoing it....he won't...but I bet he still considers it...
I think Adrian is worth a punt. My current plan from here until the dgw is to get him in gw19 (if he's 1st choice of course, have 3 games to assess this). Bench Pope 19 and 20 and 22 when Pope plays Arsenal, Spurs and Utd I think.. At 4.3m he doesn't need to shipped out afterwards so it's a low risk high reward scenario for me. Starting place dependant of course
Doubt there will be many better options for the triple C chip than Kane potentially up against the bottom two in the league in the same GW, I'm all over that
Adrian Kane maybe Eriksen and Lanzini/Arnie
Hazard Salah Sterling Richarlison RLC.
Really want Ramsey since a month but just no slot for him!
get rid of Sterling
Its a nice midfield - cant have them all
Only over RLC but surely lose balance doing that?
Bench 2:
Mustafi Daniels Ward Zeegelaar Naughton
CalvertLewin
Currently Daniels + Mustafi.
Injury allowing, bench zeegelar and Naughton.
Fabianski (Elliot)
Naughton Mee Daniels (Mustafi, Mariappa)
Richarlison Zaha KDB Salah (RLC)
Morata Vardy Kane
I had a really good week followed by a really bad week (i.e. no Hazard) but feel like the team is (or was) pretty well balanced - what do we reckon?
A) KDB + Mustafi --> Hazard + Moreno (-4)
B) Save FT and re-assess next week
Wait and see on Mustafi's injury
Ramsey or Sterling? (bear in mind I have no other attacking coverage from either)
Depends what you do with the spare £1.1m
Girls and drugs
Then do with Ramsey
Ramsey now.
Better player in real life Hazard or Sanchez?
Sanchez for me
Sanchez, he carries the whole team
Hazard is better(Quality wise if you say)
Sanchez better when it comes to cconsistency
Keep or transfer Otamendi? City have been awful defensively.
Defenders atm: Kolasinac, Otamendi, Daniels, Tarkowski, 3.9
I want to bring in Christensen and Jones. Thoughts?
I think you can wait on that transfer for another week
If you mean Jones yes. But I think Bourne will concede against Palace, so Daniels --> Christensen may not be a bad idea? And do I really want to play Otamendi against United?
ManCity conceded to Huddersfield, Southampton and WestHam.
I wouldn't play Otamendi vs ManUtd.
Foster
Kolasinac Otamendi Mee
Mané Salah Hazard(c) Richarlison
Morata Jesus Abraham
Rate my team.
Should i change anyone ?
Looks good to me
What would you go for ?
A. Crouch + Sanchez or
B. Richardlison + Lacazette
Plan to play playing 3-5-2 with C.Levin starting in A and on bench in B
*play
B
Thanks
Need help people atm this is my team im really tempted to do aload off changes and go minus points,
Plus iv 2.5 ITB
Ederson
Ward, moreno, Kolasinac
Zaha, david silva, salah, Choupo
Kane, morata, Calvert-Lewin
Bench, elliot, daniels, naughton, cork
Got money for Choupo to RLC and Silva to Hazard?
Yea but then id have no city cover just ederson
Who to play?
A. RLC (BOU)
or
B. Abraham (WBA)
both have home fixtures.
Many thanks
A
Thanks, I was swaying that way.
What to do here?
Pope
Daniels Moreno Christensen
Salah Fernandinho Richarlison Sterling
Kane Morata Aguero
Speroni Mee Carroll Hunemeier
1 FT 0.9 ITB
Thanks all
Current team:
Foster / Elliot
Daniels / Azpi / Otamendi / Soares / Rangel (!)
Salah / Haz / Carroll / Albrighton / Richarlison
Morata / Kane / Wilson
Should I pull the WC trigger - yay or nay???
V tempted as I need to sort my defence and get some Coutinho magic in my midfield.
Thanks
Any suggestion? 2ft .6 itb
Pope Elliot
Kola Mee Magu Daniels Hume
Salah Sane Richo Gross RLC
Kane Jesus Morata
Looks good enough. Maybe use one to upgrade Elliot while you can?
Way too many of the options I want to get rid of have risen 0.3, meaning I wouldn't get much credit, and couldn't afford to get them back. Frustrating.
